Detroit Techno Militia’s Belgium freethinker Dimitri Pike is one of the most underrated underground artist’s in today's scene. After a family related loss, 16 year old Mr. Pike was starting to slowly network through the realms of Benelux's nightlife, where he met like minded individuals to exchange thoughts with.
Techno music was the answer to so many questions he may had at that time. And so “Music saved my life” is a sentence with which one can identify him strongly. After witnessing the living Detroit legend Jeff Mills at a famous french rave, he had no other obsession stronger than to establish his own brand of techno sound. Subsequently he hit the old Tresor.Berlin (OFFICIAL) in 2003 amongst others for the first time, joining the Motorcity first in 2005, whilst becoming part of the renowned Detroit Techno Militia collective and doing various productions on Detroit and Chicago labels plus running a weekly radio show recently in the Motor City: Deep Space Radio.

Our local resident ReVenant has known this dear fellow for quite a while now, probably 4 years, and has seen him perform on several occasions at Tresor.Berlin (OFFICIAL). He’s a highly skilful & talented vinyl DJ with the power to blow your mind! He will never fail to surprise!

Next up is the local and youthful co-founder of Werk-Music label Sasa Strauss! Being organising-member and resident DJ at the "Werk Experience" events at ://about party and hosting the Rituals @ Suicide Circus Berlin, he has become more and more known through out the local underground industry.
Sasa's mixes consist of different facets of electronic music, such as techno, electronica to ambient and EBM. They lead through euphoric, abstract, harsh and melancholic, yet profound spheres. Let's see what he will unleash for us on our party!

Moreover we invited the big Lebowski and his long time friend Vincent Kenway to decorate the dancefloor with their multifarious house tunes. They’ve already played at various locations in their hometown Berlin throu out the last years. Being Part of the well known Berlin collective Killing Spree Records which promotes and hosts different events with a big focus on open air raves, they are always into new innovative things. Be prepared for a big ride thru the world of house.
